Absolutely gorgeous little place well looked after just need few bits looking at for eg.
Absolutely gorgeous little place well looked after just need few bits looking at for eg. Mattress way too soft and lots of people commenting on it already, dining chairs not very comfortable and sofa is solid. Nothing to wipe feet on from muddy garden. No external hot tub lights and a canopy over hot tub would make it brilliant to use all year as freezing rain wasn't very nice. Conservatory could have done with a heater as freezing eating dinner out there. Otherwise lovely place and if few bits mentioned above were replaced would definitely book again over and over. Very friendly hosts. Highly recommend if looking for rest and relaxation and a bit of fishing.
